Question

I’m using HTA and in it I have a function that should run a command line with wshell.run , If I’m writing this line in Windows ‘Run’ util it is working fine, I want it to work also in the HTA with wshell.run.

The line is:

C:\xxxx\xxx\xxx.EXE aaa.psl abc

( The names are xxx just in here – not in the real code.. )

In the javascript code I’m using:

function runCmd()
{
 wshShell.exec( "C:\xxxx\xxx\xxx.EXE aaa.psl abc" );
}

The error I got is in the xxx.EXE application says “couldn’t open aaa.psl File not found”.

Thanks,
Rotem

Okkkk T.J. is the man!! 🙂

I finnaly made it with your help by replacing exec to run:

This is the final (and working) code:

function runCmd()
{
wshShell.CurrentDirectory = "G:\\xxx\\xxx";
wshShell.run( "xxx.EXE xxx.psl abc" ); 
}
